I don't sneak anything in...as someone else said, I don't want to live that way. The exception is when I'm sneaking in a gift for him, but we've been married for almost 28 years and have resorted to buying our own gifts and telling each other about it. I do make him wrap mine, though!

My sweetie-pie has started rolling his eyes when I bring home fabric, though. I just say, 'Well, you wanted me to have a hobby!" And he walks away. He had no idea how much this hobby can cost, but he is finding out!

I don't sneak anything except gifts for him. I too, do not live that way. Not worth the aggravation, stress, and for me, it would take the enjoyment out of using the fabric or whatever.

Here in Aussie we have a store called Spotlight which I visit when in Brisbane or Toowoomba - my hubby and our Friend Bob come with me in Brisbane - they walk with me and wait while I decide if I can afford to spend or not. I have never snuck anything yet and I dont intend to - very open relationship - when the wallet is empty it is empty for both of us - One wallet in this house - my hubby is always wanting tools for his shed and his hobbies so it equals out over time

Oh DH knows the extent of the ole stash...and shows friends my sewing area - with pride. And sneaking? Nope - not good for a marriage at all.

I guess I never thought about sneaking anything. Him either. Would hate that!

In my house I have MR PLOD the fabric policeman ,
even the girls at the fabric shop know him
as MR PLOD , it is so funny I wont take home the
bright yellow bags they put things in
because they standout like neon lights I have it hidden in places your can only dream of , but I love it love it love it ............and I am not going to stop.

I think my DH is aware of how much fabric I have since I keep them in large see-through plastic drawer containers but I know he doesn't know how many sewing machines I have (4)!!!!!

I'm so lucky! My husband encourages me in every way to make what I like. He's even been trying to find new machines for me!

In 46 years I have never even thought about hiding any purchase from my husband.

oh he knows how much is in there, He had some choice words for it when we moved and there were move boxes of fabric the for 3 other rooms in the house but its ok. I go into my sewing room and he goes and plays PS3 so we have a system all worked out.
